(Posting this here rather than !askandroid@lemdro.id as it’s a quite general question)

I had a look at the GSM Arena phone finder, and it the choice is getting smaller and smaller every year (only 43 phones from 2023, reviewed by the site, had a jack)

The remaining ones are mostly

  • Xiaomi Redmi
  • Zenfones
  • Sony
  • Samsung entry range

So, has everyone switched to Bluetooth / USB-C dongles, or are there still a few people holding to the jack until the very end?

    My preference while buying phone:

    • “>8GB ram”
    • “>250 GB storage”
    • 120Hz display
    • Battery capacity “>5500mah”,
    • SD card option,
    • Headphone jack,
    • Pretty recent chip, if not the latest,
    • Waterproof ip68 minimum

    I don’t care wheather its Chinese or Taiwanese or American or any other.

    I usually debloat the device on the first day. With ADB
